license plate, organizational, permanent, or temporary placard of an individual
or organization found guilty under &#xA7;&#xA7; 46.2-1247 through 46.2-1253 if
he finds, after a hearing if requested by the person to whom the license plate
or placard is issued, that such person (i) is not a person with a disability

issued a license plate or a placard pursuant to &#xA7;&#xA7; 46.2-731, 46.2-739,
